| Message | AMSuDP, what are you TALKING about??? This bill does NOT take workers' rights away. It just simply says that the Teachers' union should shut down the ENTIRE public school system in Gokitan b/c their "union friends" in Meria are striking for the autoworkers!!!! Rather, the CWFP would reiterate its WORKERS' Rights platform: Teachers should strike for TEACHERS' wages; Autoworkers for the AUTOWORKERS.......all w/o the consequence of striking employees getting fired!!! |

| Message | Exactly - the CWP repeats their wish to remove the right to bargain collectively. The irony is - the CWFP leadership don't appear to even know they are doing it. How can you claim, with a straight face, that you are for collective bargaining, whilst simultaneously removing any advantage of leverage that might be gained from being truly collective? If automworkers think Teachers are getting shafted, and the Teachers lack the numbers to force the Education board to be reasonable - it is only JUST that the Automworkers should be allowed to add representation. Anything else is a mockery of the whole principle. |
